Honors, it sucked. No socialization and a complete booger for a roommate, although one suitemate was cool. I ended up unofficially moving into bates when my friend had two people on his floor drop out and move out, without informing the rms. Just gave him the keys, so I brought my extra bedding and speakers over. They snuck me up the fire escape for a semester. It was great.
Long football preview with lots of stats: https://www.sbnation.com/college-fo...arolina-football-2017-preview-schedule-roster Haven't read
I somehow got lucky and the wing I was on in Honors were mostly non-Honors students filling the extra space
3rd floor maxcy. Dorm was nice. My first roommate transferred to Winthrop before classes even started, so I was solo for a semester. Roommate second semester was cool and spent a lot of time in south tower with his gf. The majority of the people in that place sucked though.
Preston College. I had a bull street parking spot. I just wanted everything in close proximity...apparently that also included being near some really strange peeps...doesn't matter still had our own dining hall...introvert mode ingage
Living in a dorm full of weird people is significantly less fun than living in a dorm with mostly normal people Not like the guy who was too cool for dorm life would know though imo
yea, I just didn't pay them much attention. I was just there for the location and the private bathrooms
Lives in Bates House third floor. Same year as watson. Had a blast because was a damn free for all with booze
i lived in Douglas my freshman year, most of my friends were in Snowden. I don't think I went inside any other dorms except for Patterson. soph year lived in the fraternity house the first year the greek village was open, back when it was just SAE ATO KA and a few sororities. after that lived off campus
Radio is getting me charged up. Said Blackshear, Sawyer and Ulric Jones are all locked and loaded to ball
Don't know if it was just my year, but we had a pretty good group of normal people in Maxcy. We all had weird roommates, but it made for some funny situations.
I refuse to believe any other residents of Snowdens 6th floor ever dominated a balcony like we did. I loved that place.
Coaches polos are like jerseys. I don't understand why anyone would want to dress like the coaches on game day.
"We've got guys jawing all day saying I'll get you in the Cock Drill tomorrow" Spoiler: State Article Cock Drill: The way the Gamecocks start their mornings BY BEN BREINER [email protected] AUGUST 09, 2017 12:37 PM South Carolina tight end K.C. Crosby called it the best part of practice. Nice and early, young people only a few hours removed from bed, get the nice jolt into the day. Many folks use coffee, maybe an energy drink. These guys pop out of a stance and slam into 200 or 300 pounds of angry, padded teammate. “It’s how we start off,” Crosby said. “Called your wake-up.” And what’s the result of the team’s day-starting Cock Drill? “Either you’re going to lay down or you’re going to get practice rolling,” Crosby said. USC’s Cock Drill is a tone-setter, an indication of the style Will Muschamp wants and a way to remind the Gamecocks what they want to be. The coach preaches physicality, hitting and toughness, and it only makes sense to not put off the hitting. The drill itself is simple. An offensive player and defensive player line up across from one another with long bags on either side creating a chute. A runner comes through and it’s one-on-one, all-out effort, beat your man and get to the runner or open the hole. And USC’s version of the Oklahoma drill has a wider-ranging impact in the locker room. “It’s definitely a highlight of the day,” center Alan Knott said. “We’ve got guys jawing all day saying, ‘I’ll get you in the Cock Drill tomorrow.’ ” Players usually face the same opponents most days. Crosby usually matches with linebacker Bryson Allen-Williams. Knott gets either Ulric Jones or Kobe Smith, both defensive tackles. In the spring, defensive backs and wide receivers were often not involved in the early going, working on screen blocking instead, but in camp everyone’s been included. Even the running backs, who would seem more likely to be running behind blockers. “I like it a lot,” said tailback Ty’Son Williams, who often faces linebackers T.J. Brunson or Eldridge Thompson. “I like it better than running.” Even quarterback Jake Bentley, who obviously isn’t participating, said it has a positive effect on practice. He noted his teammates enjoy getting after it and smacking the pads together. Doing it at the start makes sense considering the identity Will Muschamp wants to instill. He was a hard-nosed player and built his defenses in the same mold. His first unit at USC was lacking, and at the start of camp, he said the Gamecocks needed to be more physical as an organization. Although teammates usually line up across from the same faces most days, they don’t always. Crosby pairs with Allen-Williams, a good friend since they arrived on campus together more than three years ago, but the linebacker wanted to pop someone else earlier this week. “Bryson and (running back) Mon (Denson), they were arguing yesterday,” Crosby said. “They were like, ‘I want you tomorrow.’ So maybe they don’t go together, but yesterday they went together because our competitive level is so high, that’s what they want to do.”
I heard a lot today about the first preseason game alumni player performance national championship and I'd just like to say "congrats".
